Business with Impact

Welcome to the Business With Impact podcast!

On today's episode, as we settle into the third quarter of the year (can you believe it?!), we want to talk about the three things we do every quarter to set the business up for success!

We’re going to discuss goal setting, how to create a solid business plan for the quarter, and how to measure your business’ metrics and data. Taking the time to think through each of these three things will really help you have a successful next 90 days.

What can you do NOW so that by the start of the next quarter your business is in a better place?

Let’s dive in!

On today’s episode, I am thrilled to be talking with my friend, my Magnify Your Content™ business partner, my colleague, AND my client, Kristen Van Horn!

Kristen is the best at all things productivity, time management, and content creation on top of being a great mom, a great wife, and a great business owner! She wears all the hats and wears them so well.

Today we’re focusing on momentum… and the most important key ingredient for momentum… consistency!

If consistency has been a struggle for you - good news - consistency for the busy business owner is just a habit, much like any other habit, that needs to be figured out day to day. Because if you’re not showing up consistently, then you can’t serve your clients or potential clients well.

It’s all about changing your mindset around what consistency looks like for you and then finding a system that works well for your business.

Let’s dive in!

Today on the Business With Impact podcast we’re’ going to talk about investing in your business! 

How do you know when to invest and when not to invest? 

When I'm trying to make an investment in my business, whether it's a laptop or whether it's knowing if I should invest in a program, I go through a framework, a series of three questions.

I want to walk you through those questions and I want to encourage you to take notes because this is going to make a difference for you and your business as you're trying to make investments and as you're trying to see if these investments are wise, worthy, and if they’re something that makes sense.

Today on the Business With Impact podcast I want to talk about this thing that we call success.

Why is it that some people seem to accomplish so much in their day… so much that it looks like they're checking every box off of their well-designed to do list… while others who have the same big plans, the same grand vision, and strong work ethic, at the end of the day are left feeling like they really didn't get much done?

If you could fully tap into your vision, and your mission, and your potential, what would that look like for you? What would that change for your business, for your family? How would life change if you were able to be more productive, if you were able to hit your goals consistently?

We’re going to talk about all of that and more today...so let’s dive in!

Have you ever been told that in order to have predictability in your business and with your income, you have to have a recurring revenue stream?

Well on today’s Business With Impact episode, I’m going to bust that myth right out of the water!

This is by far one of my favorite topics to discuss! But I have to warn you… predictability in our business doesn't come from some of those really fancy, exciting new marketing strategies that you’ll see all over your social media feeds... Predictability in our business comes from understanding our numbers.

I'm going to show you that no matter what your niche is and no matter what your service is… you, too, can have predictability in your online business!

Today on the Business With Impact podcast, we're talking about one of my favorite topics.

MINDSET.

But if you would’ve asked me several years ago if this is one of my favorite topics… I would have laughed at you, rolled my eyes, and groaned inwardly. I thought that business really can't just be about mindset.

But you know what I’ve learned? That MINDSET is absolutely one of the main things that separates a hustling overwhelmed entrepreneur from an Impactful CEO.

And while there is absolutely action and strategy that must take place in order for you to go where you need to go, and do what you need to do in your online business, the thing that will have you actually taking those actions and putting yourself out there is a strong mindset.

And when you're willing to make these shifts in your business, they will set you up to be able to do the things you need to do. So let's dive in as we talk about four of these big lessons that I had to learn in my own business!
